How to make a leader out of anyone

Let me give you the story of one man who came to the Communist Party and how we made a leader of him. You will note the stages in his development and the steps which the communists believe are required in the formation of a leader through instruction.

I had been giving a leadership course. I was the tutor. When I came to the last session, I ended it by saying what the communists the world over say: "The Communist Party is able to take anyone who is willing to be trained in leadership and turn him into a leader." I will repeat that because the communists believe it. The Communist Party is able to take anyone who is willing to be trained in leadership and turn him into a leader.

You note the one qualification–if he is willing to be trained. That presupposes an attitude of mind which communist parties have to try to create.

I closed my series with those words; I got down from the platform. A new recruit who was doing the course came to me and said that he wanted to be made into a leader. He did not say it like that. It was not as simple as that. As I looked at him, I thought I had never seen anyone look less like a leader in my life. He was short, grotesquely fat, with a great, flabby, wide, uninteresting face, as unprepossessing a man as you will find anywhere. He had a cast in one eye, and the poor man had a most distressing stutter too, and so quite literally he said to me–I am not making fun of the man–"C-c-comrade, I w-w-want you t-t-to -t-take me and t-t-train me and t-t-to t-t-t-tum me i-i-into a l-l-leader of m-men." I wondered how I was going to do it. I wondered why we had made that big claim of being able to take anyone who was willing.

Did this man even try to find one one little good thing about this poor person, who he so cruelly described? It seems to me, if he were a trainer that he would want to prove himself and because of that, try to find some good points in his possibility to train the untrainable!!. If he could train this person, he could train, anybody.

If any believer is willing to learn the the Word of God and be trained to live the spiritual way of life from His Word the Bible they have the power of the Holy Spirt to train them especially through a pastor who teaches correctly. It takes a long time to get to spiritual maturity but it is a mandate from God to do so.
Roman 12:2 And do not be conformed to this world (human viewpoint), but be transformed by the renewing (renovation) of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect.
